Then we got into BP 2 on Reservation Timing Requirements and went down the bulleted comments that Mike sent out with his ground rules, starting with the question of whether all of the BP's under Order 638 should be in the new BP's. This discussion lasted about 30 minutes. Most of the discussion focused on how to deal with the various timing issues (granularity, submittals, approvals, etc.). Finally, it was suggested that a general statement be put in the Applicability section that if 638 is superceded, a new rule may be needed on this BP. One of the suggestions was that you need to know what your products are before you can determine the timing issues. We know FERC will be coming out with a replacement for the pro forma tariff, but Mike doesn't want to wait to move forward on the BP's until then. His goal is to focus on the core elements of trading/tracking/utilization of rights and then add/subtract once we know what the new tariff will look like. It was also suggested that we may want to set aside a conference call session just to deal with timing issues to make sure all of the BP's are coordinated on that. He agreed to clean up the inconsistencies related to resales/notice thereof in the BP language. I believe it was also agreed that the BP's for Transmission should be separate from those for ancillary services (due to fact that some anc services are purchased in bulk for multiple transactions). Mike is planning the next conf call for next Wed, noon EST and another call about a week later. His hope is to go through as many of the BP's as possible this way. Today we just got through BP2. That's about it, unless someone on ESWG has something else to add. thanks > -----Original Message----- > From: Buckmier, Shirley M.- TMS > Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2002 3:01 PM > To: Rehman, Barbara - TMS > Subject: ESC Conf Call > Importance: High > > Barbara - since I was tied up asnd not able to get on the conference ESC > Copnference call today, could you please write up a short detail of what > took place.
